Charlotte was invited to attend the 18th Birthday Party of Small Steps at the Star and Garter in Putney.
This was the perfect opportunity with parents, staff, families, friends and trustees in the room to present the Pink Envelope with a cheque for £75,000! There were a few tears!
Give it Away has supported Small Steps for the last 8 years in which time they have moved premises a few times and expanded both the hands-on conductive therapy staff and the number of children they can now accommodate. Charlotte said at the presentation after giving the cheque to Anita Coppola,
“This is a Charity with real heart and feeling. The staff are utterly committed to what they do and the parents help unceasingly with fund raising despite heavy demands on their time caring for a child with sometimes severe disabilities. I will do my best to continue to support you.”
It was a lovely celebratory evening on the river appreciated and enjoyed by everyone.
